Possibly the only case where the SG-1000 port of a game was better than the Famicom release.

Unused Graphics

The Famicom Chack'n Pop was quite a bit downgraded from the arcade original, simplifying many sprites and removing all of the cutscenes. However, virtually all of this content - save for the marriage cutscene - is present in the game's CHR data. These graphics are most likely unused due to lack of PRG space (or something similar), though the true reasoning is unknown.

Mighta, who appears incredibly tiny in-game, has much larger, unused sprites resembling those in the arcade version. The first graphic has been partially overwritten with the smaller Mighta sprites, which also seemingly overwrote another large Mighta sprite entirely.
